Why People Marry.

1t would be an interesting and instruc-
tive lesson, says an English paper, if, in a
community OF married people represent
lag various social grades we could re-
quest the individuals, both husbands and
wives, TO inform Us clearly and truthfuily
of the reasons, which induced them to Sc
lect their respective partners for life. It
would be found, in many instances, the
most insignificant TRIES had Influenced
many of them in this most delicate mat
ter.
As an instance in point, take the case of

CHICAGO, ILL, Oct. 13.-Concerning
the Chicago and Atlantic horror the Inter
Ocean has particularly significant in
terVieW with DR.. G II Mcclure of Boone
Grove. Those remains which were re-
covered are of persons who were sitting
in seats near the windows and fell out
wards, when the charred framework fell
to pieces, but those who were sitting
suIide snd whose remains fell on the rails
were burned to powder, and not vestige
of them except perhaps few pieces of
bone could be found. The heat between
these rails was sufficient TO have calcined
and destroyed all remains in such
heat. When the charred mass
cooled it would 60 to powder by embers
falling on it and nothing would ever be
known of them. l WAS told By one of the
wreckers that he saw little heaps OF
bodies, and this WAS corroborated by the
statements of others, and doubtless that
was all that remained Of those who fell
between the tracks, for when heat
is sufficient to make the rails under
meath redhot and to warp and bend them
in every conceivable shape, it is almost
as intense as in crematery. DR.. Mac
Clure states that the number burned to
death is at least sixteen or eighteen.
OF the wounded he speaks definitely,
and his total is even higher
than the press estimate. DR.. MacClure
says: cat Miller's hotel in Kouts after
the accident there were seven ladies and
ten men, making seventeen in all" He
got the name and address of the lady
mentioned in the press reports as having
done the most heroic work at the wreck,
helping others to escape. It is Mrs John
Wensinger, Carey, Wysndotte county,
Ohio.

failed to get aboard the train at Ham,

perhaps it is not the true explanation Of

Rotary TO have thousand copies of the

have been printed and are now ready
for distribution-as soon as the red tape
regarding the same is unwonnd by the

little interest the administration
takes in Dakota, the eecre-

authority was not given and as result

This is thrust at the Judge which even
the friends of the Ruronite will regret.
A flaming headline over the special is as

oarpetbagger rule.p This is something
more than mere criticism Of the acts OF O
public officer.
Pierre Journal 9th: The Huronite
has failed, as we predicted they would,
to snbstantiate single charge made
against Judge Spencer, The judge not
wishing to prosecute the proprietors but
to simply vindicate his own honor and
to sustain the dignity OF the judiciary,
gave them chance to make public
statement of the true facts of the case,
which the proprietora will doubtless
gladly avail themselves of.
